Photos of my place....

Just had to share.... Looking at all the other posts with photos has inspired me....

So enjoy....


This is our garden.... Smallest one we've ever done.... The tomatoes are having issues with all the rain & cool weather... but the potatoes & beans are LOVING it...

These are my flower beds around the house.... It's our first year here, so they're kinda "sparce"....

Love your "garden helper"! I have a few of those too! And I love your big front porch, but I'm a little jealous of the lack of weeds in your flower beds and garden!

I really like the star you have on the porch and the way you have the hummingbird feeder hung on the heart frame. And the boots are so cute!
Thank you for sharing. I've really enjoyed your pictures.

Is that a grist stone in your front bed?

I have no clue where all the weeds are at. Trust me, they'd probably be there if they grew....

Yes. I have morning glories planted at the base, they will eventually climb all over it....

Your place is beautiful! You're doing a great job on your flower beds. They're going to fill out and look lovely.

What a beautiful place you have. Nothing can make a garden show its beauty more than green grass all around it.I did say around it,not in it like some spots in my garden.When folks call attention to that grass in mine,I tellum its what you call a "spotted cover crop"which is good at choking out weeds EB

Thanks everyone for such kind comments.... We do love this place.... When we were looking for a place back in September, we just kinda "fell" into this....

I am hoping to put in some fruit trees, and bushes next year.... We have 3 acres here, with out tiny house....

Wow! That's cute. The star really makes it special! I'd be adding window boxes on those side windows!
